omg dying to know your thoughts about the fact that sparkling water is what comes out of public drinking fountains in paris??

Well, I mean, it's only like what? 10, 12 fountains across the whole city who do deliver sparkling water? (edit: alright there are 17 all in all as of today's google search lol) And thanks heavens and what not, they are SO heavily advertised as such there is no risk of ever mistakenly getting The Worst Water Ever instead of the fresh nectar of the gods that is fresh plain water 😌👌

Couldn't deal with it being the standard though, like why would you ever do that to people, I ask. No one deserves this 😔

#I mean Paris' tap water isn't perfect but it's pretty neutral - taste not always perfect but it's rly healthy #so I won't complain about that #(especially after hearing the horror stories about tap water in the US ngl)#(a friend told me he suffered from dehydration during his PhD in Florida bc he couldn't buy bottled water)#(so I was ????? but the tap????)#(and he explained where he lived it was not fit for consumption????)#(anyWAY)#frankly I still don't get why they put money in that it makes zero sense to me #when instead they could have I don't know paid for more and/or better public toilets #maybe people would stop pissing that nice fountain water in the goddamned streets #JUST SAYING #(okay I know they did it because studies suggest some people only drink plain water if it's sparkling)#(and they hope to reduce the number of plastic bottles yadda yadda yadda)#(but I can protest in bad faith if I want to over my own blog ok)#the ragondin answers
